Windows Server 2012/2012 R2 iSCSI Boot Setup
Windows Server 2012/2012 R2 supports booting and installing in either the
offload or non-offload paths. QLogic requires the use of a “slipstream” DVD with
the latest QLogic drivers injected. See
“Injecting (Slipstreaming) QLogic Drivers
into Windows Image Files” on page 187
. Also refer to the Microsoft knowledge
base topic KB974072 at
.
NOTE
The Microsoft procedure injects only the eVBD and NDIS drivers. QLogic
recommends that all drivers (eVBD, VBD, BXND, OIS, FCoE, and NDIS) be
injected.
